Installation Instructions
Fuel Processor Installation
This system must be installed between the fuel tank and
the transfer fuel pump on the suction side of the fuel sys-
tem.
E WARNING: Fuels are combusible.
• RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION:
• Avoid open flames, electrical sparks or igni-
tion sources
• Do not smoke.
E WARNING: When diesel fuel is circulated through an
operating engine, it can become very hot. To prevent
personal injury,
E Scalding hazard: Do not allow fuel to come
in contact with eyes or unprotected skin.
Allow the engine and fuel to cool to ambient
temperature before replacing the fuel filter or
performing service operations which could result
in spillage of fuel from the fuel system. If this is
not possible, protective equipment (face shield,
insulated hat, gloves, and apron) must be worn.
E Always perform engine or vehicle fuel system
maintenance in a well ventilated area that is kept
free of bystanders.
E CAUTION: To ensure priming pump hoses are not
kinked by mishandling, do not lift or handle the fuel
processor by the hoses. Do not allow the weight of the
processor to rest on the hoses.
Installation Steps
1. With the engine shut down and at ambient tempera-
ture, close the fuel shutoff valve (if equipped) and
place a suitable container under the fuel filters.
2. Remove the primary fuel filter element assembly,
sedimenter, and/or water separator. Drain the used
element and dispose of it in an environmentally re-
sponsible manner, according to state and/or federal
(EPA) recommendations. The fuel can be returned to
the tank.
3. Installation of the Industrial Pro should be on the
suction side of the fuel system. Do not exceed 22
lb/in2 (15 kPa) inlet pressure to the fuel processor.
4. Mount the Industrial Pro in the desired location keep-
ing the following points in mind:
• Mounting the Industrial Pro directly on the engine is
NOT RECOMMENDED.
• Mount vertically with the cover and element pointing
up.
• Make sure there is enough top and side clearance for
the cover to be conveniently removed for filter replace-
ment. Filter service clearance: Dual Tall: 6.0" (152 mm)
minimum
E CAUTION: The Industrial Pro functions BEST when
installed so that the Filter Element is above the "FULL"
level of the fuel tank. The housing can be installed up
to 6' (1.8 m) below the "FULL" level of the fuel tank.
Installing below the "FULL" level causes the starting
level to be higher than normal. If mounted below full
tank level, a shut off valve will be required at the inlet to
allow filter changes without overflow of fuel. Mounting
below 6' (1.8 m) eliminates the "SEEING IS BELIEVING"
functionality.
